Fruit Salad writing evening

We want to create a friendly, low-pressure writing environment that's open to as many people as possible. Yes, we give a fig about your ideas and your writing goals.

We're here to help LGBTQ+ writers, plus friends and allies, connect and find encouragement and support with their writing journey. Whether you're on a roll or plum out of energy, we're here for you.

Our space is donated to us by Queer Lit and Social Refuge, we have the co-working space at the venue — if you're unsure where this is anyone at the front counter can let you know where to go — more info can be found in our FAQs below.

If you have any questions not covered or specific requirements don't hesitate to drop us an email to ZnJ1aXRzYWxhZHdyaXRlcnMgfCBnbWFpbCAhIGNvbQ==

27 Great Ancoats Street, Ancoats, M4 5AJ
